Here’s a simple but elegant Be Mine Valentine Hearts Card made with three die-cut fancy hearts and a few little hearts plus a greeting. The colored hearts are made from the Grapefruit Grove & Lovely Lipstick Foil Sheets. I am telling you, when you open this package of foil sheets you will just die over how pretty the colors are!!! The colored hearts on this card are made with the Lovely Lipstick Foil Sheet. It is so beautiful in person. And guess how much they cost?! They are FREE, with a $50 purchase during Sale-A-Bration! And we all know it’s plenty easy to spend $50 at Stampin’ Up!
To make the hearts, I used the fancy heart die in the Be Mine Stitched Framelits Dies. I probably bought the set because of this fancy heart! There are lots of hearts and they have the “stitching” on them. You might miss that in the name of the dies! They are “Stitched Framelits Dies” and that makes them fancier and prettier! We can always use hearts in our cards and projects so don’t miss this set! For a Bundle, go ahead and get the stamp set also, Meant to Be, so you can save 10% on both!
I used the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets on the back of the foil so I wouldn’t have to use glue to adhere the hearts to the card. Normally this is a great thing to do with intricate designs that are hard to adhere with glue because there are no large enough areas to apply the glue to. But when I made this card, I had a mess with all the teeny tiny pieces in the die cut edges of the hearts all sticking to my fingers! I think it was “operator error” somehow. Usually people really like the Adhesive Sheets! I seldom remember to use them and when I did remember to use them, I couldn’t find them, so there you go! Maybe I am better off just using glue!
The card itself and the two white hearts are made with the beautiful Shimmery White Cardstock. This paper is one of my enduring favorites! It has such a subtle shimmer to it yet it looks much more elegant than just Whisper White. It is also good for watercoloring if you don’t have the official watercolor paper from Stampin’ Up!.
The little hearts are die cut from the Lovely Lipstick Foil using the die that cuts out a whole grouping of hearts. I just wanted a few to use somehow on this card. I placed two inside the white hearts and scattered the others randomly on the card.
I needed a small greeting for this card and I found one in the Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set. This is a great set to own because we can never have enough words!
